There is something about the first rain After days of heat and sun That never fails to make me smile Like the world releasing a breath Held for too long When finally the sky breaks open And life rains down from above A release of emotion Tears held back for fear of appearing weak Flowing freely at last The sharp sweetness of the air Life-blood of the gods An offering, a sacrifice From the immortal to the mortal Life given to give life There is something about the first rain After days of heat and sun It is a raw power Electrifying and freeing And I am left aching for more

Just for you and I

Convoluted Chaos Written for the poetry contest "Things Get Messy" sponsored by @deadofnightpoetry Things in my life are often messy and became so once again very recently, through various factors. If only it were easy to clean up some messes. Twisted vortex of the filthiest words Not the kind which inspire sweat But instead fury, dread, bitterness And perhaps the slightest amount of regret For each word is like a solid right hook Two faces, leaving both battered and bloody The sticky viciousness which hovers in the air An intense fight, yet not a piece betwixt lies muddy Emotions kicked about as freely as yesterday's rubbish Laying in tatters, nothing solved, time marches on depressingly The sour lemony lesson: what to expect when friendships get messy #poetrycontest #poetryoftheday #poemoftheday #poetryprompt #deadofnightpoetry #poem #poetry #darkpoetry #poetrysociety #poetrylovers #poetrycommunity #originalpoetry #spilledink #queerpoet #poetryofinstagram #poetsofinstagram #queerpoetsofinstagram #creativewriting #writers #writingcommunity #writersnetwork #writersofinstagram #poetryisnotdead #thingsgetmessy #bpd #thingswewanttosay https://www.instagram.com/p/CNRMbvqlSjL/?igshid=w992qvxs4274
